Eucharistic ministers demonstrate that the liturgy belongs to the community as they facilitate the distribution of the body and blood of Christ. Those who serve must be inviting, caring people. They must give each member of the assembly a gracious welcome befitting the honored guests at the table of the Lord. Eucharistic ministers are graced with the privilege of sharing Christ's body and blood with others. They recognize Christ in the faces of all who approach. They are privileged to proclaim each person as a member of the mystical body of Christ by saying the words "the Body of Christ" and "the Blood of Christ." Eucharistic ministers profess the faith of the church and ask for affirmation in the communicants' "Amen."Skills Needed This ministry is for those who wish to share their Eucharistic faith with the members of the Parish Family. The best Eucharistic ministers have the ability to communicate their faith through eye contact and gesture. They are truly present to people in the brief shared moment of faith.Time Commitment Ministry teams are organized by Mass schedule and by month.Contact person: Bob & Ria Muller at rtmuller@aol.com
